150 Flights Canceled As WestJet Mechanics Confirm Weekend Strike

The airline had more than 250,000 passengers scheduled to fly across the long weekend.

WestJet’s maintenance technicians’ strike authorization vote is valid until July 9, 2024.

Bombardier and Uniform were unable to reach a new contract agreement.

Following a 30-day cooling-off period, American Airlines flight attendants will be able to strike.

Still, the maintenance technicians’ union accused WestJet of violating its rights to strike to improve their working conditions.

While WestJet said that its offer was generous, its maintenance technicians’ union said that there were problems inside the airline.

An end-of-month strike is looming large after talks break down.

The airline has until May 31st to reach an agreement with the union.
